You can't run an i386 binary in Rosetta. Rosetta is a ppc emulator.

Hej,

We will provide Universal Binaries, or at least native versions, of our applications for the new i386 machines. We would at the same time like to ensure that no customer of ours can run an old ppc binary on i386 by accident.
... We don't want to spend any resources in making it work in Rosetta, or dealing with bug reports from customers using it in Rosetta.

Is there a way to easily prevent an application from running in Rosetta?

First of all, this sounds like a feature request. I can completely agree that I do not want bug reports from people running a perfectly good i386 binary in Rosetta.

And just to broaden my mind a little: Why, other than for testing purposes, would anyone want to run an i386 binary in Rosetta?
